Outline The design capabilities capabilities of midas nGen 7 Foundation include include steel design, reinforced concrete design, and basic member design/strength checks. For steel members, the program offers the ability to conduct cross section calculations, which form the basis of the member design strength. For reinforced concrete members, the program offers the ability to conduct cross section and reinforcement calculations. To conduct member design and strength checks, the analysis of the structure of design interest must be linearized. Design parameters for the computations may include force/moment results output from static or dynamic analysis, as well as the cross section characteristics, characteristics, material properties, and other m ember information that is input at the creation of the model. When cre ating the analysis analysis mo del, design design criteria criteria for each mem ber may be specified using the design variable input window. If the user does not specify values for certain design variables, the program uses the default values. After using the “Run Design” option, the member design results may be verified through various options. The program offers the ability ability to run graphic post-process ing on the results, and the outputs can be seen in tabular or list list format as w ell.

D esign C apa bilities Design groups categorize members with the purpose of obtaining comm on computation results. The following conditions are considered to auto-generate design groups, and the groups may be manually mo dified by the user. ► Mem bers of a group are of the same type (beam, column, brace, wall, slab). ► Mem bers of a group have the s ame characteristics (section, thickness, material). ► If the reinforcement has been calculated, the reinforced concrete members of a group have
the same reinforcement.

Nonlinear Load Combinations
When conducting nonlinear analysis, the user must select a load combination for iterative analysis. In nonlinear analysis, only sum type load com binations may be selected. In iterative analysis, nonlinear elements such as tens ion-only and com pression-only elements experience varying loads and stiffnesses depending on the strain and stress caused by different external loads. Thus, it is not feasible to obtain accurate results through the linear sum of load com binations. Thus, as shown in Figure 1.2.6, in a structure with tension-only elements, the linear sum of analysis using two different loads is not equal to the result of using both loads at once .

In order to obtain the internal force of such a nonlinear element, unit load criteria must be applied to each load combination.

When creating load combinations using the results of m oving crane analysis, it is important to be aware o f certain load results that should not be repeated w ithin the sam e load comb ination. In such a case, the loop-option m ay be set to define the required load combinations. Consider the example of reaction forces calculated through moving crane analysis.

2.3 Member Parameters
Effective Length Factors
If the axial compression force of a compressive member is small, the column length may be slightly reduced. Ho wever, if the compressive force increases and reaches a certain threshold, then the element may sudd enly buckle. The buckling behavior of a column element depends o n the cross-section properties, material properties, column length, and boundary conditions. Columns should be designed to avoid buckling behavior. The effective length factor of a column element should be calculated using an alignment chart or by using a representative effective length factor based on the boundary conditions at the two ends. Of course, using the alignment chart to determine the effective length factor for all columns of a model is quite burdensome. The program allows for internal, automated calculations of the effective length factors for column elements. The effective length factor is decided base d on whe ther or not side sw ay is inhibited — this decides whether the structure is compo sed of a braced frame or unbraced frame. Braced frames do not permit lateral movement as they have a structural member that resists such movement (e.g. shear walls, braces). Thus, braced frames prevent lateral movement through bracing elements other than the frame. Oftentimes in actual structures, however, braces may exist in only one direction or installed in only one po rtion of the structure. Thus, it is not often easy to differentiate braced fram es from unbraced frames. In the automated procedure for calculating the effective length factor, many as sumptions are required. Thus, it is important to ens ure that the autom atically calculated values are realistic. The automated calculations for the effective length factor of all elements within a model are set up in the Design Parameters dialog window. Home>Design Settings>General>Design Code

Unbraced Length
The unbraced length of a member is determined with respect to both the y- and z-axis directions (in the element coordinate sys tem). When a member is subject to axial force or bending moment, the length that experiences bending strain along the element major axis (y-axis) and minor axis (z-axis) in the element coordinate system is called the unbraced length (see F igure 1.2.18). The unbraced length of a mem ber is used along with the effective length factor. The unbraced length also is incorporated in calculations for the slenderness ratio, which is required in computing the design axial compressive strength or allowable compress ive force.

Laterally Unbraced Length
If there is a vertical load exerted in the direction parallel to the web of a beam or girder, a vertical deflection occurs on the in-plane side of bending where the moment occurs. As the load increases and eventually passes a certain threshold, the compressive flange of the beam or girder experiences a ho rizontal displacement o utside of the bending plane. As a result, the element may experience rotation and torsion. This phenomenon is called lateral torsional buckling. When this phenomenon occurs, the member can no longer resist the force being exerted on it and may experience sudden failure. Thus, it is important to design beams and girders to prevent lateral torsional buckling. In typical steel mem ber d esign criteria, the lateral torsional buckling failure mode is considered and it is required that the designer calculate the allowab le bending stress or design bending strength. The laterally unbraced length is required to calculate the allowable bending stress (design bending stress), which incorporates lateral torsional buckling considerations. This is the distance along the length of the mem ber in which, under lateral loads, the lateral displacement of the compressive flange is restricted.

Live Load Reduction Factor
The live load that is applied to structures are not truly being exerted across the entire floor area. Thus, to achieve reasonable and economical designs, live load reduction factors, shown in Equation 1.2.4, should be used. F = F D + (LLRF)F L + F S

2.4 Check P oints
Depending on the check points within a member, the cross-section stiffness and analysis results may change. Thus, the check point locations greatly affect the design results. To obtain more a ccurate results, check point capabilities have b een installed within this program . In midas Gen, five check points were used for 1-dimensional mem bers. In this program, the user may specify check points for the entire structure or for select structural members. Furthermore, as shown in Figure 1.2.29, mem ber performance may be verified to the left or right of the check point locations. This will allow the user to check for any inconsistencies or unrealistic results that may occur due to conce ntrated loads or mem ber connections.

As shown below, check points may be specified based on the member characteristics. ► Steel Beam/Column/Brace: The number of check points may be specified for each type of mem ber, and element performanc e is verified at the ends of each of the membe r subdivisions.

2.5 Target Ratio and Design Checking/Decision
T a r g et R a t io
In this program, target ratios are defined for each member type, and the user may also incorporate marginal values when designing the cross section or checking the design strength. Typically, design results are dee med to be ad equate if the inequality shown in E quation 1.2.8 is satisfied. If the target ratio is incorporated into the design, then the inequality shown in Equation 1.2.9 is used instead.

Target ratio is used as a criterion for deciding whether the resulting design for steel or RC mem ber sections is satisfactory. For designing reinforcement in RC mem bers, the target ratio also serves to help decide w hether the reinforcement design is satisfactory. The target ratio may be selected differently depending on the member material properties, shape, or other important values. Thus, it is up to the user to decide on the design criteria and marginal values. The target ratio for either the entire structure or for select members in the Design Settings dialog window.

Design Results and Decisions
The program allows the user to check the design results and provides the design checking process in a more detailed manner, as show n in Figure 1.2.4. Figure 1.2.41 Design Results and Checking
► Need C heck : This is the case in which the design result is smaller than the minimum target
ratio. This often represents overdesign situations, and the user may attempt a more eco nomic design by m odifying the materials, cross sections, and design factors. ► OK : This is the case in which the minimum target ratio < design result ≤ m aximum target ratio. ► Critical : This is the case in which the maximum target ratio < design result ≤ (1.0). The actual behavior should meet performance criteria, but represents a situation in which some members must be checked as the overall design exceeds the maximum target ratio set by the user. ► NG : Design result > (1.0). ► Failure : This only applies to RC mem bers and is available so that users may detect the possibility of brittle failure. In such a case, the member does not perform adequately with only augmenting the steel reinforcement, so it is necessary that the user increase the cross section size or m aterial strength.

2.6 Design Cases
In this program, different analysis cases may be set up with a single model. Each analysis case may be defined to conduct analysis with different target members, loads, and boundary conditions. Thus, even with a single model, a variety of analysis results may be created. Moreo ver, if the design case is defined with the options included in these analysis cases , then various design results may also be created.
Figure 1.2.44 Design Cases set up dialog window
One analysis case is defined within a design case.
The design is conducted using the target members, loads, and boundary conditions defined within the analysis case. After modeling the entire structure and analyzing it, specific members or load conditions may be selected before continuing with design. Using this, various analysis or design cases can be created and separated/merged/connected designs can be conducted and critical members (for each load or type of structural member) can be identified easily. Various design cases are defined.

Various design cases are defined and then ana lysis is conducted. Results for each design case can be seen, and the least optimal case is called the Envelope Design Case. The Envelope Design C ase result is provided to the user to quickly check the structure’s overall appearance. Additionally, when defining design cases, the “Com bined Design Case” ca pability may be used to create com binations of various loading or boundary co nditions.

For a typical cross section, F cr is the product of the steel yield strength F y and the typical section material strength reduction factor. The nominal comp ressive strength is calculated as follows. P n = ( Material Strength Factor ) ´ F y A g
(2.3.9)
3) Flexural/Bending Strength Nominal flexural strength is determined based on the member’s width to thickness ratio and the laterally unbraced length. Moreover, various limit states depending on the section’s shape or flexuralcompressive memb er’s cross-section category (compa ct, noncomp act, slender) are also examined, and the minimum va lue of those limit states is used.

The nominal flexural strength of a member and how it is a function of the width to thickness ratio is shown in Figure 2.3.1. As shown below, the calculation may be split into three areas of compact, noncompact, and slender members. As the width to thickness ratio increases, the nominal flexural strength decreases.

The no minal flexural strength of a m ember a nd how it is a function of the mem ber’s laterally unbraced length is shown below in Figure 2.3.2. The comp utation may be split into four areas of plastic design, full plastic, inelastic lateral buckling, and elastic lateral buckling. As the laterally unbraced length increases, the nom inal flexural strength decreases. Figure 2.3.2 Nominal flexural strength based on the mem ber’s laterally unbraced

5) Torsional S trength Steel tube sections can better resist torsion compared to open type cross sections. Thus, the torsional strength is compu ted with the assump tion that the total torsional moment is resisted by the pure torsion shear stress. For other cross-sections, the minimum value is selected from the vertical stress yielding limit state, shear stress yielding limit state, and the buckling limit state. In AISC 360-10, torsional strength equations are provided only for steel tube cross sections, so this program also supports torsional checks for steel tube cross se ctions.

Serviceability Ch ecks All of the structure, including each specific structural member and connections, must be checked for serviceability. When p erforming this check, the load factors in load combinations are a ll 1.0. However, the factor for earthquake loading is 0.7.
1) Sagging Checks Excessive sagging has negative effects on the structure’s appearance and performance. It may also cause damage to nonstructural components, and thus the actual deflection must be smaller than the allowable deflection.

The actual deflection is calculated as the product of the load combination factor and the analyzed deflection value. The allowable deflection is based on the member length and the user-specified design environment.
Fatigue Checks If there are repeated loads on a structure, it may experience fatigue and cracks may occur. If cracks become enlarged, the structure may experience collapse. Such fatigue effects are caused by a large numbe r of repeated stresses, and is not typically applied to building structures. Crane girders that are subject to repeated loads or structures that resist machinery or equ ipment ma y, however, experience cracks

Ultimate Limit State The design resistance value of the cross-section must be greater than the design load values, and an important factor in calculating the re sistance va lue is the cross-section classification. The E urocode categorizes cross-sections into four classes and the de finitions for each class a re shown below.

Class 1
Class 1 cross-sections are those which can form a plastic hinge with the rotation capacity required from plastic a nalysis w ithout reduction of the resistance.
Class 2
Class 2 cross-sections are those which can develop their plastic moment resistance, but have limited rotation cap acity because o f local buckling.

Class 4
Class 3 cross-sections are those in which the stress in the extreme compression fibre of the steel membe r assum ing an elastic distribution of stresses can reach the yield strength, but local buckling is liable to prevent development of the plastic moment resistance. Class 4 cross-sections are those in which local buckling will occur before the attainment of yield stress in one or more parts of the cross-section.

2) Find load combination envelopes for each comp onent midas nGe n does not go through the section calculation process for all load combinations. The program finds the load combination that yields the maximum and minimum values of the member’s axial, shear, torsional, and lateral demands, in order to find the design with the largest possibility of becoming the governing design. Shear and moment demands must also consider both the major and minor axe s, and thus a total of 12 load com binations is required for proper section calculation.

Setting Rebar Default Values ►
Cover thickness
Cover thickness decides the starting location for the rebar. The cover thickness may be defined following one of the two processes below. - Clear Cover: The thickness extends from the concrete edge to the outermost rebar surface - Con’c Edge~ Rebar Center: The thickness extends from the concrete edge to the rebar center
Figure 3.2.4 Cover thickness set up procedure
Whe n calculating the strength of an RC m ember, steel location is an important parameter. If “Clear Cover” is selected, the first rebar center’s location is calculated using the cover thickness, the shear rebar diameter, and half of the m ain rebar diameter.

► Basic information regarding rebar calculations for each member type
This section explains the setting of default values for important rebar parameters su ch as ce nter cover thickness, main reinforcement diame ter, largest steel ratio, ma in reinforcement coupling method, shea r reinforcemen t diameter, etc.
The concrete cover thickness and the steel diameter’s default values are considered when first creating the rebar arrangement, and the m ain reinforcement coupling method is used w hen ca lculating the possible number of rebars. For example, the calculation for possible number of rebars for a single layer due to clear cover limits is shown below.

► Defining the reinforcement based on the member type
This section explains the process for defining the steel’s maximum/minimum diameters and maximum/minimum spacing depending on the member type and section measurements. For bea ms, the section height is used as the basis to determine the ma in reinforcemen t which will then govern the ma ximum/minimum d iameter for the m ain reinforcement and the greatest number of rebars. The shear steel reinforcement will determine the maximum/minimum diameter, maximum/minimum spacing, and the spacing increment. The outer steel determines the minimum/maximum diameter. The Section 2. Rebar/Arrangement | 95
DESIGN REFERENCE
Chapter 3. RC Design
main steel starts with the minimum diameter, whereas the shear steel starts at the minimum diameter and minimum sp acing. Then, the program analyzes the required amount of steel for the expected demand and finds the rebar arrangement that best satisfies spacing requirements and steel ratio requirements.
Figure 3.2.5 Shear rebar design settings dialog window
96 | Section 2. Rebar/Arrangement
Chapter 3. RC Design
DESIGN REFERENCE
For columns and braces, the section measurements’ minimum values are used as the basis and the main reinforcement decides the minimum and maximum diameters. The shear reinforcement determines the maximum/minimum diameter, maximum/minimum spacing, and spacing increment. The main reinforcement begins at the minimum diameter, and the shear reinforcement begins at the minimum diam eter and minimum spacing. The program then ana lyzes the required amou nt of steel for the expected demand and finds the steel rebar arrangement that best satisfies the spacing and steel ratio requirements.
Figure 3.2.6 Column rebar design settings dialog window
For plate members, the minimum plate thickness is used as the basis. The main reinforcement dictates the maximum/minimum diameter, upper/lower reinforcement numbers, maximum/minimum spacing, and the spacing increment. The shear reinforcement dictates the maximum/minimum diameter, maximum/m inimum spacing, and the spacing increment.
Figure 3.2.7 Plate rebar design settings dialog window
The shear reinforcement makes a list of combinations of the diameter and leg number, and proceeds with the rebar creation in a sequential manner. The diameter list is defined from the m inimum diameter to the maximum diameter, and the leg list is defined from two to the maximum number of legs. The maximum numb er of legs is decided by taking into account the num ber of shear reinforcement rebars and the clear cover restrictions, and chooses the maximum possible number of legs. The number of legs that takes into account the steel clear cover restriction is calculated as follows.

Co m m on D esign Co nsiderations Mome nt Redistribution Factor [Applicable Membe r: Beams] Typically, for statically indeterminate RC structures, a single section failure does not bring structural collapse and there is a significant difference in dem and required to b ring about the first failure and total collapse. Therefore, simply because an indeterminate beam has reached its ultimate mom ent does not mean immediate failure. Before reaching the state of failure, the load will increase and create a plastic hinge. This w ill then a ffect the mom ent distribution, and the phe nome non is called the redistribution of moment. That is to say, the state at which failure occurs, the section has plastic resistance. In parts of the member where rotation is allowed, or where the plastic hinge has formed, moment does not change. The moment will instead increase where there is low strength, and this is called moment redistribution. The mo ment redistribution factor aims to reflect such pheno mena in R C beam s, and the design forces that incorporates the m omen t redistribution are is calculated as follows.

Mome nt Magnifiers δns, δs [Applicable mem bers: columns, braces] Moment magnifiers are used to approximate second order analysis results using first order analysis results, to incorporate second order effects without conducting a full analysis. Mome nt magn ifiers are automatically computed for laterally braced and unbraced members. If the member’s effective length factor k is less than 1.0, then the mem ber is considered to be laterally braced. δ ns is a mome nt magnifier that aims to incorporate P-δ effects that occur due to strains developing in the structure, and is supported by automa tic computation in this program.

M em ber Examination Procedure (Beams)-ACI318-11 The me mber verification procedure for RC beam s following the ACI318-11 design code is explained in this section. The design strength is calculated using the analyzed strengths, load combinations, and design strength modificatio n factors. Industry standard strengths are compu ted to verify the mom ent, shear, and m ain reinforcement spac ing, to ensure con sistency. For serviceability, immediate deflections, long term deflections, and o uter rebar spacing are checked.

The design forces are calculated, factoring in the member check points, load types, and load combination factors. 2) Application of live load reduction factors
As explained in the section Design Factors>Live Load R eduction factors, components that are subject to live loads will have design forces that incorporate the live load reduction factor. 3) Application of Moment Redistribution Factors
Between both ends of a beam in which minor axis mome nts are present, at least one end is selected for application of a mom ent redistribution factor less than 1.0 (as explained in D esign Factors>M omen t Redistribution Factors). Then, the design moment incorporating the moment redistribution factor is calculated. 4) Application of Seismic Desi gn Criteria

Shear
Design shear forces may be calculated using either the strong shear-weak bending principle method or the add itional shear m ethod. The user may specify his or her preference within the program settings. If the earthquake resisting system is a special mom ent frame, then the design shear is calculated using the strong shear-weak bending principle.

Calculation of Design Dem ands/Forces Design demands/forces are computed by applying load combinations, live load reduction factors, mome nt redistribution factors, and seismic design criteria.

2) App lying the live load redu ction factor The ana lyzed demand s at the membe r check points, load types, and the load comb ination factors are incorporated in compu ting the design dema nds. 3) Applying moment redistribution factors
Between both ends of a beam in which minor axis moments are present, at least one end is selected for application of a mom ent redistribution factor less than 1.0 (as explained in D esign Factors>M omen t Redistribution Factors). Then, the design moment incorporating the moment redistribution factor is calculated. 4) Ap plying special seismic design criteria If seismic design criteria are to be applied, then the strong shear-weak bending is applied to load combinations including earthquake loads an d the design shear forces are calculated as sho wn below.
